<td width="100%">
<font size="2" face="Arial"><font color="#FFFFFF">Three is a magic
number. Some wise person said that things happen in threes,</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">and
for Anthony O’Brien, the wise person couldn’t be more
correct! <br>
<br>
Following two initial band formations The People and Three
Sided Circle, which</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">both unfortunately
resulted in division, singer/songwriter/guitarist Anthony</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">O’Brien
is now in current pursuit of his burning desire to be part of the</font>
<font color="#FFFFFF">ambitious music scene with his fellow band
mates and new identity Inside View</font> <font color="#FFFFFF"><br>
<br>
With two failed bands as reference, Ant’s judgment on starting a
new venture</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">was not self-assured to say
the least. It took six months of reflection and</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">thought
on whether a solo career, if any career in music would be an option.</font>
<font color="#FFFFFF">Fortunately, the slight imperfections of the
past were brought to closure as a</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">new
band began to take shape.</font> <font color="#FFFFFF"><br>
<br>
During the summer of 2016, a talented young drummer, Chris
Wainwright, was</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">discovered by Ant while
he was watching a practice session of a band Chris was</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">part
of at the time. Ant was extremely impressed and at first hearing
that</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">Chris’s band had split up, Ant
jumped at the opportunity to work with him.</font> <font color="#FFFFFF"><br>
<br>
Several months of practice conjured some exciting music. However,
both Chris</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">and Ant where still
searching for the missing link. Many musicians where auditioned, but
due to lack of commitment or interest, none where taken on </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">
board.</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">Matt Ashton, a promising,
confident bassist came into sight when he arrived at</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">Ant
and Chris’s rehearsal studio to practice with them. Even with
limited</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">experience both Ant and Chris
saw a great deal of potential in him, and so the</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">three
piece band originated.</font> <font color="#FFFFFF"><br>
<br>
Things were finally slotting into place. The subsequent month or so
saw the</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">threefold working together,
contributing each others unique creativity through</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">writing
and development of songs. However, while three was a magic number,</font>
<font color="#FFFFFF">four seemed to be the formula which fit, and
Ant, Chris and Matt agreed a</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">fourth
member may enhance the groups sound.</font> <font color="#FFFFFF"><br>
<br>
After another round of unsuccessful auditions, a message posted by
the band on</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">a local music internet site
caught the eye of inquisitive lead guitarist,</font> <font color="#FFFFFF">Scott
Steele. Ant invited Scott to a practice session even though
Matt and </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">Chris were unable to
attend. The pressure must have been immense for Scott, </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">yet
his talent shone though flawlessly. Ant invited Scott to a full
band </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">rehearsal, and the vote was
unanimous, Scott fit perfectly as the missing </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">piece
in Inside View’s musical puzzle. </font> <font color="#FFFFFF"><br>
<br>
Inside View officially formed in November 2016, and months of
rehearsals lead </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">them to their
first impressive live gig at The Tavern in February 2005.
Their </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">success has spiraled,
landing them with gigs in excellent venues such as The </font>
<font color="#FFFFFF">Roadhouse and The Night and Day Café in
Manchester, and also at the JJB </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">stadium
in their hometown, Wigan. </font> <font color="#FFFFFF"><br>
<br>
Also Inside View has recently finished recording three tracks
at John Kettle’s </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">Jarraf
House studio, which will be available at future gigs. </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">With
such great opportunities arising in the pipeline in such a
short length </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">of time Inside View
are set to keep escalating. With Ant’s false starts
his </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">third time in the music business
is definitely the lucky one, and finding </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">three
band mates who are on the same creative and determined wave
length, this </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">young, fresh and
thought provoking new band are set to take the northwest,
and </font> <font color="#FFFFFF">beyond by storm. <br>
<br>
It’s never clear until you see the Inside View … </font> </font>
